Another in the style of Colin Brown, the same style used in the painting I recently posted : Waiting to Cross the Strand. Except that it isnt in that style. It certainly started that way, but my good intentions were quickly usurped by my own usual methods and this is the outcome. I think it was the detail that forced me to get tighter.
Though it’s not to say I am unhappy with the result. I rather like it and it has some things going for it that please me.
The subject is, as you can see, the fruit stall. This comes into view when you exit the main entrance from Central Station in Liverpool. Central Station is the hub of the city’s rapid transport system, not he mainline station. The stall is in a bit of a down at heel alley that links to a new shopping precinct. When the sun shines on it, though, the stall seems to glow and this is what I have captured here.
It is also a welcome addition to my Liverpool Series.

Interesting Market Scene, when I lived in Kingston, Ontario there was an old market behind the city hall. I like how the painting is slightly out of focus, and it looks like heat is rising in the sun. Also you really captured the people well.

Thanks Shawn. Maybe the out of focus image is a result of my photography and the low resolution I use to save storage space.

Thanks Robin. The underpainting gave it an unexpected lift. I could have made more of it, but I’m quite happy with the result.
